Garnet
A stone of passion, courage and enduring strength.
Deep red like pomegranate seeds and glowing like an ember in fading light, Garnet has a warmth that feels both powerful and deeply grounded. The name itself comes from the Latin granatum, meaning pomegranate, and Garnet has been treasured for thousands of years as a gemstone, talisman and symbol of devotion. It is actually a family of minerals that occurs in a beautiful range of colours, although deep red remains its most recognisable form.
Traditionally associated with passion, courage, protection and vitality, Garnet is often seen as a stone of inner fire. It is believed to strengthen determination, encourage confidence and help you keep moving when the road ahead asks for courage.
Garnet also carries a strong connection with love, devotion and meaningful bonds. Throughout history, it has been given as a symbol of affection and was traditionally carried by travellers as a protective talisman, making it a beautiful companion for journeys — both outward and within.
A stone for following what sets your heart alight, standing firmly in your own strength and carrying a little fire with you wherever you go.
